Opus is always better - but at high bitrates, artifacts become so imperceptible that it doesn't matter too much which codec you pick, so you might still pick Vorbis for greater compatibility. > In any event, are the same FUD tactics that were used against > Vorbis applying to Opus - and with the expiration of the MP3 patents I > would think those arguments would now be moot... but I'm sure there will > always be some excuse. As has been seen, the threats against Vorbis were all hollow. If your claims are baseless, it doesn't matter if the unspecified patents are expired or not :) In general, Opus adoption has been very fast compared to Vorbis because it is vastly better than other options in the low-delay niche, and is mandatory for WebRTC. -- devel mailing list devel@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct
